The use of medicinal plants evolved over time and the interest of the pharmaceutical companies in these plants and their compounds is increasing. This paper aims to conduct an ethnobotanical study on Cuphea carthagenensis (Jacq.) J. Macbr. (Lythraceae), popularly known as “sete-sangrias”, used by the Health Pastoral Care, Southern Region 4, of the Diocese of Criciúma, Santa Catarina State, through the realization of 10 semi-structured interviews, applying questionnaires about botanical, agronomic and pharmacological aspects. Among the most used pharmaceutical forms, infusion and alcohol are the most important, these forms are indicated to combat triglycerides, for the circulation and high blood pressure. Scientific studies have shown that C. carthagenensis presented results for cholesterol, hypertension, diuretics, antioxidant and vase-relaxing. Our study reveals the importance of studies that rescue the knowledge of medicinal plants of regional use in areas in constant formations, as the cities, so that knowledge is not lost.
